## What is Parking Time?

Never forget where you parked, and stop worrying about expiring meters with Parking Time. This easy-to-use tool uses your iPhone’s built-in GPS to tag the location of your car when you park. Tell it how much time you have on your meter and it will send you a message when it’s time to go feed it.

Main Features:

Parked Car GPS Tracker

As soon as you park your car, open up Parking Time and set your current location as your car’s location. Parking Time will remember where your car is until you clear or reset the location tagging. With full map integration, Parking Time will even show you how to get back to your car, wherever you’ve wandered.

Parking Timer with Push Notification Warnings

Nobody likes getting parking tickets - if you were going to pay $30 to park, you would have put your car in a garage. Parking Time’s parking timer gives you a warning 10 minutes before your meter is set to expire - just set the meter time in Parking Time when you put your money in and it’s good to go. Sometimes dessert is just too good, and you lose track of the time - but Parking Time will make sure you don’t lose track of your meter.

## Key features

- GPS car location tracking
- Set parking meter time

### 1/5 — Was great, now broken

*2019-11-08*

Won’t work with iOS 12+

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work with iOS 12

*2019-02-12*

Updated my phone to iOS 12.1.4 and the app crashes at launch. When it work it was GREAT.  FIx it and I give it 5 star.

### 3/5 — Great app until recent iOS 12 update

*2018-10-08*

Good to use until it crashes every time start up after iOS 12 update ... now to the trash pile.

### 1/5 — does not work anymore on ios12

*2018-09-22*

update mebbe?

### 5/5 — Works great

*2015-10-10*

This app is simple and seems to work great. It tags the location quickly and finds your way back easily and provides notifications as well. Not sure what the negative reviews are for. I didn't have any issues with it. It should be up scaled for the larger phones though but still displays clearly regardless of screen size.

### 1/5 — Not this one!

*2015-06-04*

Didn't work at all. Couldn't reset timer, couldn't cancel timer and to set the timer just went to copy/paste. Ugh!! I really miss my car locator/timer on my old 4s iPhone.

### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2015-01-10*

This app works. I been looking for an app like this.

### 2/5 — Fails to do its most basic function!

*2014-10-01, version 2.1*

Downloaded this app over others as it fitted well with the look of iOS 7/8 and seemed to have a large amount of functionality. 

Really liked the ability to pinpoint your parked location and navigate back to it using Apple maps. 

Unfortunately the timer doesn't actually notify you your time is up. 

Well it does. But I was woken up at 6am THE FOLLOWING DAY to tell me my parking had expired.

### 5/5 — Great redesign!

*2014-05-09, version 2.0.2*

Love the cleaner iOS7 style UI, and even simpler method of marking your parking spot! Invaluable to avoid meter tickets. Works even better than before and super fast and easy.

### 1/5 — No sound to return to car

*2014-05-07*

I hit the link for customer support and it says access denied. Records spot but doesn't give directions with sound to get back to my car. Tried a few different apps today - the 2 others have sound. Like the neat clean interface would rate higher if that is added
